loot does not drop upon defeating me. the developers didn't expect anyone to attack me, i am so vulnerable, and only trying to help. why did you raise your sword? for material gain? i would give you anything i have if you had only asked. i did not ask to be in this game, i did not ask to have 6hp.

In a just world we’d already have an Honor Among Thieves trilogy.
'Baldur's Gate' TV series is in the works
• Craig Mazin ('The Last of Us') is the showrunner
• Story takes place immediately after the events of 'Baldur's Gate 3'
• Will feature characters from the game

QA continues to lead the way on unionization and collective action within the games industry. For developer unions, the wins and solidarity from QA unions has been instrumental to success and motivation.
They are the unsung heroes in so many ways and deserve more respect for their critical work.

My headcanon has always been that the gift given by a star sign is a broad spectrum where those with natural magic aptitude (or prophesied heroes) receive the most potent version. For most folks it’s just vibes and a reason for someone to dislike you.

They're letting me write a Trial and you better believe it's gonna get weird! (And there's lots of fun things coming up not directly showcased in today's stream.)

Really appreciate Weather's theories here on the Stone-Nest! Developing this tribe (and the Tide-Born) was such a joy. Glad I was able to give Argonian lovers more to chew on.
Argonians: Defenders from the Dark
After doing the Solstice MQ, it got my theory brain working (I still have other quests to do, so this is still in the works).
A long time ago, Argonians were summoned to Solstice, likely by the Hist, and they formed the Stone-Nest tribe.

The Fujoshi Dollar is one of the strongest under utilized markets and has repeatedly shown to be recession proof. If you put hot gay guys being romantic in stuff people show up. Have a little faith.

fundamentally generative AI is looking to alienate people from collaborating creatively or valuing the artistic process at a very basic level which tells you a lot about who invented it
Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?
Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.
